Urban lighting is evolving from a basic technical infrastructure to a strategic tool for sustainable regeneration, energy efficiency, and public space reactivation. This paper explores the potential of smart and adaptive lighting systems as enablers...

The Strait of Messina occupies a strategic position in the Mediterranean, representing an environmental and territorial peculiarity. The Strait area today is at the center of the political debate for the stable crossing project, a strategic infrastru...

Timely and accurate urban change detection is vital for sustainable urban development, infrastructure management, and disaster response. Traditional two-dimensional approaches often overlook vertical and structural variations in dense urban areas. Th...

Effective management of organic and inorganic fertilizers is vital for sustaining productivity in intensive cropping systems. This four-year study (2012–2015) assessed the immediate and residual effects of cattle corralling combined with minera...

Soil moisture is an essential environmental parameter affecting hydrological cycles, agricultural productivity, and climate systems. Conventional in situ measurements are precise but do not provide the spatiotemporal coverage for large applications....

This paper examines an approach to local-level community action for the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), amid the growing importance of context-specific implementations to accelerate progress. Land-use governance is critical for contribut...

Due to climate change, runoff simulations and understanding the relationship between rainfall and runoff are crucial for watershed management. This study combined a Geographic Information System (GIS) and the Hydrologic Engineering Centre-Hydrologic...

Eaton Canyon in California serves as the focal point for a comprehensive post-wildfire ecological impact assessment. This study employs an approach integrating satellite imagery from the European Space Agency’s Sentinel constellation to study a...

The Dhaka District is experiencing rapid industrial growth alongside uncontrolled urban expansion, leading to significant land-use conflicts and environmental pressures. This study investigates how to identify the optimal sites for industrial develop...

This study evaluates groundwater quality dynamics in the Harran Plain (∼1500 km²), a key agricultural zone within Türkiye’s Southeastern Anatolia Project (GAP). Satellite images from Landsat 5 TM and Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS were used to ass...

The advent of hyperspectral remote sensing represented a breakthrough in the accurate, fast, and non-invasive estimation of important soil fertility parameters. The present study utilizes non-imaging hyperspectral data in the spectral range of 350&nd...
